Rapid multi-orientation quantitative susceptibility mapping
Bilgic, Berkin; Xie, Luke; Dibb, Russell; Langkammer, Christian; Mutluay, Aysegul; Ye, Huihui; Polimeni, Jonathan R.; Augustinack, Jean; Liu, Chunlei; Wald, Lawrence L.; Setsompop, Kawin (Elsevier BV, 2016-01-15)
Three-dimensional gradient echo (GRE) is the main workhorse sequence used for susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI), quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM), and susceptibility tensor imaging (STI). Achieving optimal phase signal-to-noise ratio requires late echo times, thus necessitating a long repetition time (TR). Combined with the large encoding burden of whole-brain coverage with high resolution, this leads to increased scan time. Further, the dipole kernel relating the tissue phase to the underlying...
Preliminary seismic performance assessment procedure for existing RC buildings
Yakut, Ahmet (2004-08-01)
A preliminary procedure to assess rapidly the likely seismic performance of existing reinforced concrete buildings is presented. In this procedure, a Capacity Index is computed considering the orientation, size and material properties of the components comprising the lateral load resisting structural system. This index is then modified by several coefficients that reflect the quality of workmanship and materials, and architectural features. The procedure has been tested and calibrated based on the data comp...
Quantitative flood risk assessment with application in Turkey
Keskin, Fatih; Şorman, Ali Ünal; Department of Geodetic and Geographical Information Technologies (2012)
Floods can result in enormous causalities and huge economic losses in urban and rural regions. In recent years, while assessing the damage, risk analysis and assessment has become an important tool in addressing uncertainty in flood hazards. The lack of knowledge about the water extend, water depth, water velocity and potential damage in case of flood increase the vulnerability of the people to disasters in the flood region. Especially this information is valuable for city planners and decision makers. In c...
Critical crack size investigation method for a land launcher
Yetgin, A.; Acar, B.; Kadıoğlu, Fevzi Suat (2018-01-01)
Structural integrity evaluation of military systems is vital in such applications as rocket launchers. In safe life design, for a certain operational life the system is ensured to function well and no failure would occur even in the presence of some imperfections or flaws. This paper considers the fracture analysis as part of the safe life design approach that is used in the design of a rocket launcher. A methodology based on sub modelling technique is introduced. It was made sure that unstable crack growth...
Rapid training data generation from image sequences for pattern recognition
DİLAN, Rasim Askin; Koku, Ahmet Buğra; Konukseven, Erhan İlhan (2011-04-15)
This study focuses on the development of a novel technique for the rapid generation of artificial neural network training data from video streams. Videos captured on an off-road terrain are used to train artificial neural networks that learn to differentiate road and non-road sections in the captured videos. Contrary to the times-taking frame-by-frame processing, in the proposed method, classification data of road pixels is created concurrently as the video plays. The proposed method is explained in detail ...
